Beautifully Bold & Unapologetically Impassioned describes Singer/Songwriter/Woman of
Worship – Tina Jenkins Crawley - a spirited powerhouse of a vocalist who is a part of The
Blacksmith Project family of artists. Her song, Thank You Lord, off her debut album, “The
Longest Journey” continues to rise to the top of the Gospel Music Charts.

Tina began singing at a very young age in her hometown of Springfield, IL and later would
realize that singing & songwriting were actually what she was called to do. Tina says, “I
realized that God's purpose in me was greater than my voice.” Since responding to that calling,
she has been blessed with the ability to reach the hearts & souls of people around the globe
performing internationally in several different languages (English, German and Spanish). In
addition to the U.S., her songs are now played in Switzerland, Germany, Sweden, France and the
U.K...

Her debut album, The Longest Journey” was definitely one of her longest journeys as she
began hitting the ground running in 2000. This album offers up Inspirational Jazz & Soul with
the lyrical likings of powerful Inspirational Soul Artists such as Jill Scott, Ledisi, Esperanza
Spalding & CeCe Winans. She has had the privilege of sharing the stage with many gifted
artists, both sacred and secular, including Mavis Staples, Paul Rodgers of Bad Company,
Anthony David and internationally acclaimed violinist, Roddy Chong. She has lent her voice to
music videos (with artists R. Kelly and Celine Dion), commercials and a myriad of special
features. Tina just shot the music video for one of the tracks Suddenly and it was the feature
song for the independent film, Jump In.

Tina is a faithful member of the Chicago Church of Christ and is a Guest Worship Leader at
various churches throughout the United States. In 2000, she won the Gospel Music Association's
Music in the Rockies award for Songwriting. For several years, she has also had the pleasure of
the role as Vocal Director for both the Global Leadership Summit and International Global
Leadership Summit for Willow Creek Association. Most recently, she was thrilled to be
included as a featured vocalist for the 2012 World Discipleship Summit of the International
Churches of Christ where she devoted her gift to help lead worship for nearly 18,000 people
and also in 2012, “The Longest Journey” remained No. 1 on the UK Soul Chart for four
consecutive weeks.

Her album has already been called the freshest take on Inspirational Music in years. Several
satellite music services, including XM/SIRIUS, have her music in rotation and she has been
featured in several publications. The debut album “The Longest Journey” is currently available
on iTunes, CD Baby, and on her Pandora station. Tina is currently performing
with the famed Larry King Orchestra and is back in the studio
working on her next project.
